[laughter] lou: mark simone, gina, thank you very much. i appreciate it. thank you for being with us lauren: it is monday, february 25th. here are your market movers. >> i think you would be amazed with what you see. let's see what happens. lauren: president trump crediting substantial progress in the trade talks with china for his decision to delay a round of tariffs set to hit chinese goods this saturday. we'll see how the markets react to what could be the end of the u.s./china trade tensions. president trump is heading to vietnam to fir for his second st with kim jong un. the latest on the road to denuclearization. and the stars were out in hollywood last night for the hostless 91st academy awards. we'll have all the highlights

from tinseltown. gerri: good monday morning. here's how your money is moving. u.s. stock market futures are pointing to a higher open. the s&p is pricing in advance along with the tech heavy nasdaq as well. european marc markets are tradi, thanks to the he delayed tariff increase on $250 billion worth of chinese goods. stocks in asia higher overnight. shanghai picking up over 5 and-a-half percent, after president trump announced he would postpone tariffs. so looks like it's positive for the markets, lauren. lauren: welcome to "fbn: a.m.." i'm lauren simonetti. good morning, i'm susan lee. president trump said he will

delay raising tariffs on chinese imports, citing progress in talks with china over the weekend. tariffs were set to jump to 25%, up from 10% on march 2nd. no new deadline was announced but the president told governors at the whiles out that he is opt optimistic about the negotiations. >> if all works well, we're going to have very big news over the next week or two and it's really been terrific. we put ourselves into a position of strength for the first time in about 35 years or probably a lot more than that. but china's been terrific. we want to make a deal that's great for both countries and that's really what we're going to be doing. president trump also announcing a summit with china's president, xi jinping, at mar-a-lago to finalize an agreement but lauren, we don't know when that will take place. lauren: no, we don't. i don't think we have a written document either. let's any david nelson, the -- let's bring in david nelson to

discuss all of this and how it could move the markets. the shanghai composite is up over 5% today, david. my question for you is, is this delay better to the u.s. or for china? >> look, both sides need the deal, certainly. the president could use a deal. politically, we're going into 2020. china needs a deal as well. lot of indication that's their economy is starting the roll over. their crown jewel, the economic contraction in the manufacturing sector is starting to play out. both sides need the deal. futures are up modestly. we're only up slightly this morning. lauren: we have significant questions. how long will this trade truce be delayed for? do we have a date for the summit between the two leaders? and is the fact that that might be in marla he gro mar-a-lago ay the chinese? >> i think it's a concession for both. the delay up until that meeting,

the question is, what will we get out of that. i'm certain president xi will go a long way, offer a lot, perhaps more than $1 trillion to buy u.s. goods to help close the trade gap. will they make progress on l intellectuaintellectual propert. both sides of the aisle will tear this apart, especially heading into the he election. lauren: do you think the government will make any concessions when it comes to subsidies. a lot of people are saying they won't, because that changes the way they do business, it's against their culture. >> it would be a structural change for them. i think they'll drag their feet on that. one feather in the cap of president xi, he understands we're going into an election season. they think in terms of decades, we think in terms of election cycle. both sides need a deal. the election weighs heavily on the president. lauren: i want to talk about the huawei charges. this is a separate issue. there is concern they could be tossed out as part of the china

trade deal. as just to refresh viewers, a set of charges, criminal charges again huawei for violating u.s. sanctions against iran and for stealing our technology. do you think the president would toss aside any potential charges for a trade deal? >> the temptation is certainly there for sure and our intelligence community pointed out they think is an extende anx estential threat. i hope the president doesn't give in on this. lauren: as the wall street journal editorial board writes, u.s. attorney generalses ar gent trade negotiates. you've got to separate the two. in a few hours president trump is taking off for a second

summit with kim jong un. the latest round of talks will start on wednesday. lauren: griff jenkins is live for us in washington with a preview of what we can expect. >> reporter: good morning. busy week. the president heads to hanoi with hopes of furthering the goal of denuclearization. there is no shortage nay-sayers at home. senate democrats say the first meeting gave kim legitimacy on the world stage. the democrats are now writing we believe the next meeting with kim must demonstrate tangible, verifyable progress on denuclearization and reducing tensions with the north. at a ball last night, the president shot back. >> we've given up nothing. the sanctions are on, everything's on. we have a special feeling, i'm not pushing for speed but we're not removing the sanctions. >> reporter: senior administration officials say the goal in vietnam is going to be building upon the four pillars agreed to last june. they were the establishment of

new relations for peace and prosperity, a lasting and stable peace regime on the korean peninsula, complete denuclearization of the korean peninsula and recovering pow partly sunn m.i.a. remains. secretary of state pompeo is en route, noting it will take l time, starting with undoing previous policies. >> the previous administration's policy which was allow the north koreans, to of test, pray they would stop and cower, it's been up ended by president trump. >> reporter: the president will depart shortly after noon. it will be a busy week. lauren, susan. lauren: it absolutely is. griff, thank you very much. vice president mike pence meeting with venezuela's opposition leader over the

susan: the world's largest event for mobile technology, the mobile world congress, kicks off today in barcelona, spain. lauren: for more on what the biggest names in technology are showing off, let's go to evalina live for us in barcelona. hi, there. >> reporter: hi, how are you doing? here we are at the mobile world congress, the largest annual exhibition event in the domain of the newest technology for tablets, smartphones and cameras. this year the top of the agenda is of course 5g technology. huawei has released already this new affordable telephone with 5g

technology and it is going to be released in the middle of 2019. of course, talking about the connections between the usa and china, u.s. wants to ban its technology in its country, of course this is now the topic of the agenda of all the countries. european countries don't agree with the u.s. while japan and australia is on the u.s. side. so i think for the next three days, this is going to be the main topic that everyone will talk about. susan: thank you so much. we were talking about how much the foldable phones cost. lauren: i know. crazy that huawei came in, there's is double the price of the samsung one. and then there's microsoft, they're receiving backlash from their emplo employees over new ground-breaking technology. tracee carrasco joins us with more on that story. tracee: more than 150 microsoft employees signed a letter demanding that the company cancel a $480 million contract to build a hollow lens for the

pentagon, saying they, quote, refuse to create technology for war fare and oppression. the letter says, quote, we are alarmed that microsoft is working to provide weapons technology to the u.s. military, helping one country's government increasingly using tools we built. we didn't sign up to develop weapons and we demand a say in how our work is used. the contract was awarded last november for the hollow lens that provides increased mobility and situational awareness. we saw this with google last year as well. they had the a.i. contract with the pentagon. google workers protested that. google eventually pulled out. lauren: there's a big disconnect between silicon l valley and our military, quite frankly. remember amazon, jeff bezos came in favor of the tech giants working on this technology. susan: also the power of employees these days in sell

consistent valley. let's talk about the box office winners. it's interesting we have a sequel doing very. tracee: it's been a slow start to the box office, this year, until now. >> there won't be any dragons left and it's up to us to put an end to it. >> oh? what are you going to do about it. tracee: with an estimated $55.5 million, universal's how to train your dragon not only took the top spot at the theaters this weekend, but also the largest debut of the year and the largest opening in the how to train your dragon franchise. in second, alita, battle angel with $12 million. rounding out the top five, the lego movie two, the second part, fighting with my family and isn't is romantic. last year at this time black panther was ruling the box office. that's why i think this year we're seeing that slow start. lauren: i haven't seen any of those movies you just listed. what about you? lauren.tray you sigh, thank youy

much. let's check in on the markets at this point. we're looking for a higher open today thanks to the china/u.s. trade truce as we'll talk it. we're expecting triple digit gains for the dow jones industrial, the s&p should be higher by half a percent. coming up next, a busy week for traders, china and the u.s. keep working on trade. we also have fed chairman jerome powell set to testify and the north korean nuclear summit takes place in vietnam. how the markets are preparing. and an iceberg twice the size of new york city is about to break off from an antarctica. we'll tell you why nasa scientists are worried about that. you're watching "fbn: a.m.." ♪ there's a hazy shade of winter. ♪ hang on to your hopes, my friends.

susan: let's get you caught up on global market action. take a look at the gains that we're expecting as well after the rebound that we saw across the globe. we're up in triple digits for the dow, higher for the s&p and nasdaq as well. european stocks, we're seeing gains across the board with the ftse, cac and dax in germany, same thing for asia. a rally for shanghai last night, up 5 and-a-half percent, virtually every stock except for two saw a good session. lauren: looks like wall street could extend the rally that we saw on friday and perhaps a follow-through on the shanghai composite we saw overnight. investors are reacting big-time to president trump's move to delay raising tariffs on chinese imports which would happen at

12:01 a.m. saturday morning. investors are awaiting fed chair jay powell, he's testifying on the economy to congress this week and you have the summit between president trump and the north korean leader kim jong un in vietnam. let's bring in wells fargo senior economist, mark vitner, to unpack all of this. thank you for coming on. >> good morning. lauren: let's start with trade. do you think any trade deal we get has real teeth? >> i think it's going to have more teeth than what we had. i think the markets are just now beginning to get the sense that there's likely to be real progress here. it's in china's best interest to open up r their markets more and to offer more intellectual property protections because companies have gotten wise already and they've been pulling out of china. i think there's more motivation for them to do something than people realize. lauren: it seems like you think we're getting the trade deal. do you think the markets go up when we do get one or are the gains already baked in. >> a lot of the gain is baked in. i do think there's more upside.

i think people are underestimating how strong the agreement is going to be. i think it's going to be much more meaningful to the u.s. and much more meaningful to china and much more meaningful to the world economy. lauren: fed chair powell testifies before congress this week. i'm curious what you expect him to say and if he'll address maybe altering, if you will, altering is a good word here, the inflation targets of 2%. >> i don't know that they're going to alter it too much. i think they'll talk about -- that inflation's been h below 2% for so many years now, that if it did tend to pop above 2%, as long as it didn't get above 2.5% for a sustained period of time, i don't think that really causes major problems for the fed. that doesn't seem to be a threat right now. if anything, global inflationary pressures have been lessening. so i'm not really that worried about that. i think he's going to get peppered with a lot of questions, probably more from the democratic side, as to whether he caved to political

pressure to switch the fed's stance. and i really don't think it was political pressure. i think it was the slowing in the global economy and i think the fed looked at where the economy was headed and said wow, we've already done a lot, let's just take a step back. lauren: right. and president trump as we wrap this up, mark, he is going to vietnam for a second summit with the leader of north korea and i highlight vietnam and i'm sure this is why the white house selected that nation for the summit is they are an economic powerhouse at this point. they've completely overhauled their economy in cooperation with the u.s. do you think kim is -- go ahead. is he looking at that and thinking we could could that too if we work with you. >> i think that's a great point. in many ways vietnam is more captaicapitalist today than it'r

been. there's certainly a big entrepreneurial spirit within vietnam. i think he's hoping to show there's a path for north korea to move forward. lauren: thank you for hitting all those topics for us. susan: theresa may delaying a vote on the brexit deal in parliament. >> we won't be bringing a meaningful vote back this week. it will happen by the 12th of march. we still have it within our grasp to leave the european union with a deal on the 29th of march. susan: chris k a k a anoti jois us. 17 days until brexit day at the end of the month. what is she trying to achieve here? >> it would appear that's what attempted to get achieved is to get that necessary massive coalition, namely if it's too

far before the deadline there's a pervasive thought that the different sides on the many issues are not going to come together, they're not going to be inspired to back the deal and there is a school of thought where if this deal is the only option and it's too late to get anything else on the table, then maybe her deal's the best option to avoid what everyone seems to want to avoid, a no deal brexit. susan: what about brexit day itself, march 29th, the end of next month basically, people are talking about an extension, a delay for a few years so the u.k. will remain in the e.u. up until 2021, perhaps. >> that was an interesting bit of reporting. i know that the prime minister was down in the middle east and there were certain other european leaders there and that's the story, seemingly out of the e.u. camp, at least at this point. it doesn't seem like they have all 27 member nations agreeing to it but it's this idea that since all of he these issues are going to just take so long to solve and there is some truth to

that, why not extend until the end of 2021. now, in the u.k., they're going to maybe backlash against that or at least a percentage will backlash against that thinking if we wait until 2021, we might wait forever and brexit might not happen. susan: that's what a lot of people are saying, especially the hard liners, saying people voted for this and brexit may not take place. why not have a second referendum? >> second referendum is an interesting option. i came from the u.s. about a year ago. the idea of any referendum, if you come from that system and you just transplant yourself into this system is pretty phenomenal. but in thinking through, i know back in 2016 there were certain issues on the table such as immigration and the like. the world has seemingly changed a lot since 2016. there are certain similarities. but at the same time, the same concerns that people had in 2016 might not be at the top of their minds today and additionally, there was no sort of detail or

information as people were voting for brexit, if you had asked them what do you mean by that and all the different treaties and relationships and organizations, now at least there's a lot more consciousness of the details. susan: jamie dimon says theresa may was dealt a bad hand and she's playing that hand very badly. don't you think the cost of either brexit or a no deal brexit has been baked into the markets? >> so in syncing from a few different perspectives, if you look at u.k. equities, whether large cap or small cap this year, things are positive. small cap's a bit more so. as wisdom tree we've seen that generally in europe. nobody talks about strong growth. nobody talks about the risks on the political front not being there and yet the overall global market rally, i know in the previous segment you were talking about china, you look around the globe, a lot of stocks generally have been going the upward direction. i think the pound has been a bit

more interesting because you see it around 130. it's been appreciating. it seems to be predicting a deal. susan: that's what i think as well. chris, thank you so much. >> thank you. lauren: let's get to some headlines making news. kraft heinz reportedly considering selling their maxwell house coffee for at least $3 billion. kraft heinz recently suffered its worst trading day in history, plummeting 27%. that was on friday after reporting disappointing fourth quarter numbers. well, peleton has selected goldman sacks and jp morgan chase to lead their ipo. they sell exercise bikes and tablets that stream live fitness classes on a subscription basis. house intelligence committee chair adam schiff said he would take the department of justice to court over special counsel robert mueller's report on the russia investigation. he demanded its public release.

>> we will obviously subpoena the report. we will bring bob mueller in to testify before congress. we will take it to court if necessary. we are going to share this information with the public and if the president is serious about all of his claims of exxon raiseexxoner raise, he should we the report. lauren: there are suggestions that the investigation could be wrapping up soon. nasa is so concerned about this ice shelf that is twice the size of new york city. scientists say it could soon break off from an antarctica. they say a break could put scientific research on the ice shelf at risk. imagine that, something the size of manhattan breaking off. susan: still ahead, the owner of the new england patriots could be arrested as early as today after an investigation into human trafficking. details coming up. and tough talks from alexandria

ocasio-cortez. >> people like oh, it's unrealistic, oh, it's big, oh, it doesn't address this little minute thing. until you do it, i'm the pos. susan: aoc, the freshman new york congresswoman taking on critics on her green new deal. what effect will the message have on the democrats? we have details coming up next. you're watching "fbn: a.m." ♪ you may be right. ♪ i may be crazy. ♪ but it just may be a lunatic you're looking for. p. you've done a lot of good for the world. p. but i feel like you have the potential to do so much more. can we build ai without bias? how can we bake security into everything we do? we need tech that helps people understand each other. that understands my business. we've got some work to do... and we need your help. we need your support. let's expect more from technology. let's put smart to work. ♪ ♪

lauren: congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez continuing to promote her socialist green new deal and over the weekend she slammed critics of her plan. >> because no one l else has even tried. people are like oh, it's unrealistic, oh, it's vague, oh, it doesn't address this minute thing. i'm like, you try. you do it. because you're not. because you're not. so until you do it, i'm the boss. lauren: okay. some democrats are distancing themselves from aoc. we ask is the party continuing to go way too far left and we bring in gabby orr, the political white house reporter. gabby, good morning. >> good morning. thanks for having me on. lauren: when you looks at comments by aoc and some of the other 2020 hopefuls on the democratic side, why is capitalism so bad to them? >> you know, they strongly favor what could be considered

socialism. i mean, all of them are running on progressive ideals, progressive cams pains. they're advocating for things like government ownership of industries like healthcare. these are ideas that often turn off republican voters and older generations and it's curious why democrats are moving in this direction because polling consistently shows that americans still tend to favor entrepreneurism, that they still tend to favor small business creation, all of the things that are anti-thetical t to socialis. it's unlikely to play well in a general election. lauren: i want you to hear what the dnc chair, tom perez, had to say about that and we'll get your response on the other side. >> you go back 7 a 75 years, wn republicans don't want to discuss the issues that matter to real people, they call it

socialism. social security when it was being debated, you had republicans calling it socialism. the minimum wage in 1938, you had republicans calling it socialism. lauren: what do you make of that? and also that many democrats are refusing to put a price tag on how much this stuff is going to cost us, the taxpayer. >> that's certainly something they're going to have to a answer for, hopefully in a primary and also a general election. but to tom perez's point, it's not republicans who are exclusively calling progressive democrats socialists. in many cases, it is those testimonies themselves who are out there declaring themselves socialists. there were more than 40 democratic candidates who labeledded themselves democratic socialists who won office in 2018, the midterm elections. to say it's just republicans trying to tack on this label unfairly to democrats, just simply isn't true. lauren: thank you very much for coming on this morning.
